Works to laterally reduce 10no. leylandii trees back to residential boundary line of School House, covered by Tree Preservation Order SGTPO 633 dated 9th September 2009

To crown raise the X6 mixed trees along the boundary wall overhanging into the residential gardens (indicated in shaded area on submitted email) to 5 meters from ground level. Reduce back some selected over extended limbs back into the crown line

Tree Group T0089 (mainly Oak) - Crown lift oaks to 5m residential side only and prune all other woody vegetation back to the fence line. Tagged oak reduce crown width by 3m (30%) that is overhanging residents side only. Tree Group T0090 (mixed of Broadleaf) - Tagged oak sever and clear ivy from ground to 1.5m and remove all deadwood on residential side only. Group of elm and hawthorns next to oak prune back to property boundary lines. Tree Group T0091 (Hawthorn) - Group of 3 hawthorns in a line, sever and clear ivy from ground to 1.5m and fell marked dead tree at ground level. Tree Group T0092 (Hawthorn) - Group of elm fell all dead and diseased trees at ground level. Stack timber and brash neatly into habitat piles well away from residential gardens. (Not marked due to head high thick bramble). Tree T16951 (Beech) - Beech with wound cavity on North side at 4m extending to 3m up main stem. Highly likely to fail towards road in storm. Monolith above decay and leave for habitat value. Tree T2521 (Beech) - Twin stem Beech with wound cavity on East side of North stem. Signs of fungi and sounding mallet suggests hollowing towards included bark union. Monolith above decay point and leave for habitat value.

All treework is at The Elms, a pocket of land between Norlesden House and Fairmount Residential Care Home: G1 Row of small Robinia pseudoacacia (Robinia) on rear left boundary in neighbouring property The Elms including one small sycamore sapling within group - - Trim/reduce to just inside the boundary line. G2 Group of Fraxinus excelsior (Ash) on rear left boundary in neighbouring property The Elms - - Trim/reduce to just inside the boundary line. G3 Row of mixed trees in neighbouring property The Elms running along the length of tennis court - Trim/reduce to just inside the boundary line. SUBJECT TO TPO 2339 (2.11.2009)

The requested work involves the removal of Pine tree, T7 that is currently protected under TPO No: 0004 (2021). The tree is in very poor health (very little live wood in evidence), assessed to be in a state of declining health and unlikely to recover. The tree is a large specimen, 16m in height and located on the southern boundary of 237 Hills Road, Cambridge, directly adjacent to the Public Highway of Hills Avenue. The tree is also located close to the nearby residential property of Tirnalia House, please refer to Grid Ref: Easting / Northing (546432.28 / 256082.12). The probable cause of decline is Phytophthora disease, which is known to be a soil borne disease and therefore likely to have entered the tree via its roots causing damage to the root system. In a state of ill heath (rapid decline) and with a weakened root system, the tree is predisposed to tree failure / wind throw, especially in high gales. Being positioned close to the Public Highway and residential property, if the tree were to fail, the potential for significant damage to property or injury to persons are assessed as significant.

Silver birch (T1) - an overall reduction of 30%. The reduction includes removing branches that extend over a boundary fence and are too close to an adjacent residential property.

Mature Sycamore trees T12, 13, 14. Approx. 16m tall - remove cut back height by up to 3m to leave trees at 13m. Cut back branches on east side only by up to 4m to old pollard, pruning points, no further than 1.5m east of residential boundary wall.

T1, T2, T3 - X3 LIME - Front of site Re-pollard to previous reduction points (1.5-2M) Lift to 2.5-3M Reduction of crowns requested to maintain crowns to a suitable size/spread and alleviate low hanging crown to public footpath and encroachment to parking area & access road T4 X1 BEECH (within G1 TPO Group) Reduce lateral crown encroachment from tree line to footpath/bus-stop/road signage by lifting low hanging canopy to 3-4M height. T6 LAUREL GROUP (within G3 TPO Group) Crown encroachment to parking bays. Reduce lateral crown back to parking area boundary, to maintain suitable clearance for vehicle parking and obscured street lamp. G1, MATURE BEECH TREE GROUP, LOCATED ALONG SITE BOUNDARY (within G1 TPO Group) Crown encroachment & conflict with main building structures/roof line. Crown growth has potential to cause damage to roof line & guttering. Obstructing light to properties. Reduce lateral crown encroachment to property by 2-3M, to previous reduction points to maintain crown to a suitable clearance from the property block. To create suitable crown clearance between the tree line & property block/roofline. Improve ambient light to properties. T5. Silver Birch (located within G2 TPO Group) Ring Ivy infestation to group, remove dead material from within crown. Shorten overextended limb, overhanging garden of 8 Dickinson avenue, Croxley green, Rickmansworth, WD3 3EX, due to recent limb failure, works to minimise risk of further limb failure into residential garden.

T1 - Redwood - Remove Reason: The redwood tree is potentially very large with the capacity to achieve greater than 25m in height with a substantial stem and crown radius. It is located within roughly 4m of an extension (recently granted full planning permission 20/00686/FUL) to the existing dwelling at 22 Water Lane and approximately 5m from number 24. In this respect, the tree is not well suited to its enclosed residential setting. The future relationship between the tree and the buildings is unsustainable. As the tree grows it will shade and dominate the nearby structures and in doing so cause anxiety for future occupiers. In addition, there is a possibility that the tree could harm the adjacent brick boundary wall and hard surface by direct root action and by branch ends whipping against the fabric of a building. If the tree is retained, then ongoing pruning will be required that would harm its natural form. Given its current small size, the tree has a low degree of merit as a public amenity. There are spruce and ash trees in front of it that will mitigate its loss.

Tree Works Notice of intended tree works in conservation area of Badsworth Meadow Mead, Main Street, Badsworth WF9 1AJ is a residential property situated off a private access road, with boundaries adjacent to St Mary's Church and The School House and Hall Farm Barn. The garden has been left untended for years by the previous owner resulting in many self-set, unsuitably positioned and potentially structurally damaging tree and shrub growth. As the current new owners, we provide notification of intended tree works designed to provide benefits to the longevity of some of the trees, safer surroundings, and an overall improvement to the site. Please note some recent cutting back of shrub and brambles has taken place by the previous owner in order to gain access to remove his property from the garden, including 3 derelict vehicles East facing boundary Meadow Mead T 1 Douglas fir (Christmas tree) to be removed , due to size and close proximity to bungalow, extensive root network having a detrimental effect on the surrounding garden West facing boundary of Meadow Mead T 2 Self set sycamore, approx 10m high generally reshape by pruning back leggy growth and crowning to achieve approx 3m reduction in height. T 3 Self set sycamore, approx 10m high, overhanging garden of Hall Farm Barn, work required to generally reshape by pruning back leggy growth and crowning to achieve approx 3m reduction in height.
